Chemical peels remove old skin so that new layers can grow in their place. This controlled removal ranges in strength, from superficial peels that use mild acids to deep peels that penetrate several layers of skin. Depending the type of peel you get, you might have a reaction similar to a sunburn, which may involve scaling, swelling, and blisters. This may last anywhere from three to 14 days, after which time your skin should be smoother, brighter, and softer. LEARN MORE ›

TODAY I had the Skin Medica Rejuvenize strongest peel. This was not as strong as a Phenol peel. This is the first peel I have ever had. I was very nervous, but there was nothing to it--I know--I am maybe not the norm. On a scale of 1-10 it was a 0-1 stinging. I am now waiting for the peel to...

I got this chemical peel with the goal of clearing up my acne and some of my milder acne scars. My dermatologist performed extractions of the pimples on my face, followed by a medium-level peel for 4 minutes. During the peel, my face blistered and turned dark pink, and a few areas frosted over....

I opted for Apeele peel instead of Fraxel Laser due to the pain factor.
Day 1 of the Apeele Peel- Only stung a little on the second pass as she was applying it to my skin. It had a more stinging effect and was easily controlled by fanning myself. The pictures don't sure the actual color- I am...

I am day 4 post having a prestige peel. I was skeptical at first that this peel would be more than the flaking that I have had from glygolic peels, but, this is designed to be a medium peel, and so far, I would say they are not kidding. I had the peel Monday afternoon. I didn't find it that...

I had a VI peel earlier this year and wrote a negative review of that because it did not make my skin peel or produce results in making my skin any better. It was like my skin was immune to any effects of it. However, as fall approached and my skin suddenly turned terrible with adult acne, I...
